cannot discover where there are no links
Sorry, you may delete the post if you wish, seemed rather straightforward to me. Topic of forum is e-discovery, one cannot get it right the first time if there is no way to locate an item of electronic records. There is no way to locate an item of electronic records if something so simple as 00012345 as opposed to 12345 causes the loss of an electronic record. Checking is conducted for the most part on electronic records. Leading zeros are tantamount to spaces, therefore insignificant.
We cannot conduct business in such an environ where beginner level work loses valuable property, thus seemed very relevant to the topic at hand. If one were to report to a warehousing supervisor that "I cannot find the pallet because it had leading zeros on the inventory tag." that would normally be viewed in a manner normally the baliwick of law. I don't want to get to negative here so let me put it this way, when I came up - they would beat you and or fire you for that.
As such given that it is from banking institutions who normally are craft-competent in programming it is especially relevant to e-discovery that no one could get it right the first time if such obvious issues - which are beginner level work - are the basis for loss of pallet sized chunks of inventory. I know if a worker came to me and told me a pallet of tile FedEx from Germany was lost because of this, it would be pretty obvious that professional investigatory work may be awaiting later.
Please just delete the post if this is not sufficient, or edit out major chunks if that will avail efficiency.
